§ MR. HANBURYI beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether the number of men now entering the Army is largely below that of those recruited during the corresponding weeks of last year; and, if so, whether it is to be attributed to a suspension, partial or total, of special enlistments, or to what other cause?
§ MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMANThe Army is at present so full that we have been able to raise the standard for certain corps and to minimise special enlistments.
